If you suffer from orofacial pain and are looking for a safe and effective pain management solution, our Carson orofacial pain specialist, Dr. Paul Grin, is here to help. Dr. Grin uses acupuncture to help patients with orofacial pain. Orofacial pain is a general term that refers to pain that is experienced above the shoulders, above the neck, below the orbitomeatal line, and before the ears and the oral cavity. Orofacial pain can develop for a number of reasons. Often, conditions like temporomandibular joint disorder cause orofacial pain. Toothache and other similar dental issues can also lead to orofacial pain. Acupuncture has proven to be an excellent method when used in conjunction with necessary medical procedures when it comes to managing orofacial pain and allowing patients to live comfortably again.
